Three Pigs
Three Pigs
by Melanie D Palmer

There were three pigs.
One was rich and had common sense.
The middle one was poor and dense,
Youngest one was book smart with a bit o scense (common sense & cents).

Smart pig built a house made from bricks,
Stood out more then the others.
Middle...

I've got butterflies in my stomach,
A frog in my throat,
Cat's got my tongue,
And someone's got my goat.

I'm as sly as a fox,
But as blind as a bat.
I'm as silly as a goose.
Now what do you think of that?...

Life Is Sinking
In order to stay alive,
she had to be as sly as a fox,
as she lived in a cardboard box,
controlled stress,
an old mattress,
dirty old clothes,
a book or two,
as hunger shows,
dirty water for drinking,
while death is floating, and life is sinking,
those images stuck in her head,
and people...

When I was a child 
We had little in means
So all my investments
Were in fantasy dreams.

A favorite of mine
Was told by my pap
Of a Sandman who came
Whenever you'd nap.

He came with a bag
And a mission, this guy
To put one piece of sand
In each sleeping eye.

So...

The Path of Deceit
Sly as a fox you might be
Turning and twisting your words around
Toying with your fate and destiny
Till everything pulls you down

Words of prayers you sent above
Hoping no one see beneath the lie
Tricking and fooling the once you love
Guilty, heavy-hearted - You let out a sigh

Hoping...

Hackneyed
She’s as pretty as a picture
And as quiet as a mouse.
He’s as blind as a bat
And as fat as a house.

She’s as stubborn as a mule
And as sly as a fox.
He’s as wise as an owl
And as strong as an ox.

She’s as skinny as a...

I Don'T Want Your Love
I think of our last kiss
		And I tremble.
I remember how I held you
		And I shudder.
How when we are one it is bliss
		Passion doth resemble.
For thirty years I’ve held your view
		Destruction is udder.
Sly as a fox, you lured me with your kiss
		Powerful I tremble
I thought I...

Sure Leave
On Saturday night in the city
The seamen are looking for Titty
But sly as a fox 
She gets off their rocks
Proving it pays to be pretty...

Beautiful Nightmare
When I met you at my door,
I was hit in the core...
The way you looked at me,
Made it feel like it was meant to be...

My face turned red,
just like you said...
And even when I called you a jerk,
You still had a smirk...

I was extremely shy,
but...

The Enemy At Close Range

The enemy at close range
Loyalty sold for a piece of meat, a coin or a good dose of gossip


The enemy at close range
A friend with evil intentions
Searching for loopholes


The enemy at close range
Embraces you with a smile
Helps you clean your gun
But pulls the trigger when...

Premium Member Another Dumb Poem
In a world of confusion 
Sitting here musing
Advanced as we are 
Have we gone to far
What ever you need to know 
Your knowledge you wish to grow
Look at your phone it will show
The time of technology is here and now
Don't know, the phone will show...

The Poet's Poet
People often ask me about my favorite poet
Let's see if you can guess
He's nothing like the coventional ones
Or even, any of the rest

Everyone who saw him knew his name
For he said it a million times
I laughed everytime he opened his mouth
For he'd always speak in...

My Dog
I have a dog sweet and sound 
That goes woof woof all the time 
He jumps ,he bites , he licks ,he barks
But too cute to give him a lecture all the time 
Sweet and sound he goes 
To get the things he need 
Without...

Hatchet Man
Donald Trump promised a Flat Tax
But cuts are more "Hi!" chat than axe
As sly as a fox
The Trumps loot Fort Knox
With lies quite shy of the facts...
